Here's another one to whet your appetites.
INT. MALEVA's WAGON - DUSK
Maleva sits at her table, shuffling through a tarot deck, as the door opens. Lawrence walks in, closing the door behind him.
MALEVA
I knew you would return, Lawrence Talbot.
LAWRENCE
What is happening to me?
MALEVA
What do you mean?
Lawrence sighs, sitting down across from her.
LAWRENCE
You found me that night. When I was bitten. What happened to me? What bit me?!
MALEVA
Did you not scoff at the supernatural?
LAWRENCE
You can't honestly get me to believe that I was bitten by a werewolf.
MALEVA
Then there is no hope for you, Lawrence Talbot.
LAWRENCE
Listen, please. I'm sorry. My shoulder feels stronger than ever. I've been feeling odd, quicker, stronger, I can hear things better, my sight is crystal clear.
Maleva's expression sinks.
MALEVA
Let me see your wound.
Lawrence unbuttons his shirt. There is no scar. No sign of any attack at all. Lawrence is just as shocked as Maleva.
LAWRENCE
Wha....it was...Tell me what's happening!
Maleva stands up, turning away from Lawrence.
MALEVA
You did not listen to the spirits, Lawrence Talbot. Fate dealt you a heavy hand. Your fate isn't in my hands.
Lawrence puts his head in his hands, and drops to both of his knees.
LAWRENCE
Please....please...
MALEVA
Even a man who is pure of heart and says his prayers by night may become a wolf, when the wolfsbane blooms, and the moon is full and bright.
LAWRENCE
What?
Maleva puts her finger to his forehead, and closes her eyes.
MALEVA
Saints be with you, my son. Go. Go, quickly.
Lawrence gets to his feet, backing up.
MALEVA
Wait!
Maleva, grabs something off of her table, something that we can't see, and puts it in Lawrence's hand.
MALEVA
Take this with you, Lawrence Talbot. It will help you find your brother, for better or for worse. Now go, and Heaven help you.
Lawrence looks down at the ting, and backs away, leaving the wagon in a mixture of fear and confusion.
